The Boise State football team’s offense has taken on a slower, more methodical identity this season, but that doesn’t mean the Broncos have been devoid of those signature, jump-out-of-your-seat moments.
Running back Alexander Mattison provided one such moment Saturday night in Boise State’s 24-14 win over Wyoming at Albertsons Stadium.
The 5-foot-11, 214-pound sophomore caught a short pass from quarterback Brett Rypien midway through the fourth quarter, then hurdled a Wyoming defender in stride for a 22-yard gain that led to the Broncos’ final scoring drive of the night.
“A lot of people don’t know I ran the 110 hurdles in high school, so I do have it in my arsenal,” Mattison said.
